Next week there is no school. Yes, from Monday to Friday. Yet, that doesn't mean there is nothing for me to do.
Believe me, I have loads to do.
I thought spending some time reflecting on what I need to get done next week is highly important. To being, I need to complete my college essay, do my article, work on my science project about Chlorine, write my blog, and finally, study for my math test.

In life, I've always tried to do think because of a purpose, however, I'm constantly opened up for new projects and activities. Planning ahead, for me, is something new. Ultimately, I planned in advance a maximum of two or three days, but never two weeks.
Recently, I've been loving to do checklists. It simply feels great to check out work that you've been struggling with. By this, here's a checklist for all my activities. I've separated my tasks by placing the most important at the top, and the least at the bottom.

Have you ever heard the story "What is your live frog?". In the most recent years, a teacher of mine showed me a video that talked about eating a live frog. Disgusting, right? Yes, it is. Metaphorically speaking, the whole idea for this sentence was for you to prioritise your time. If you chose to eat anything you want, whatever you choose, and enjoyed it, it would be easy 'work'. However, if you were told to eat a live frog, and get over with it soon or else something bad happens, you would most probably eat the frog, metaphorically speaking. The whole purpose is for you to eat or finish up your most important task. Although it might be challenging for you, it needs to be done.
This is what I am planning on doing. My live frog for the next week is my College Essay. It is what I need to get done because it is the most important. Later on, after I have eaten my frog, the rest of the tasks will simply go though my throat like chocolate.
Yum!
